Prada Silvy informed that the company is happy about the research results according to which 1% wt of SWeNT specialty multi-walled carbon nanotubes are capable of substituting 6% wt typical conductive carbon-P used in the current formulation of lithium-ion battery cathodes, thus providing enhanced performance in rate capability, improved specific energy, augmented cycle life, and minimal impedance in high power electrodes. Optimal control over the carbon nanotube structure, which includes lower structural defects, less number of walls, higher aspect ratio and morphology, and high purity levels are the basis of these performance properties.
